The magic number is 6. The World Series champion Giants are one game away from post-season elimination, completing their slide from first to (likely) worst within a season. Kind of like a reverse-Red Sox. The Dodgers are in line to clinch the division as early as this weekend, which will kick off a celebration that will make the above pictures look like a warmup. It's getting nearer. Can you feel it?

The game was barely underway when the Giants, reigning World Series champions, were eliminated from the National League Wild Card playoff race, by virtue of Cincinnati's 6-0 win over the Cubs. The Giants were eliminated from title contention in the NL West on Monday.

Why is tonights tweet question about playing AL central teams next year when we can't even score a run tonight? Let's maybe get our shit together NOW guys and worry about next year when it comes around.
